A little reminder that this Sunday (4th October 2009) I will be one of the exhibitors at the Pontelands Park wedding show in Chelmsford.
Wedding shows are a great opportunity to meet with suppliers, have a close look at venues, and get great ideas for your big day, without the pressure of needing to make an immediate decision.
I’ve been working hard on getting together lots of cool things to share with visitors to me at the show and anyone who comes to see me at the wedding show will not only get a warm welcome and answers to their questions, but also a little celebration gift from me.
This event is being run by the very experienced and dedicated team at Main Event CO UK Ltd, here is their Wedding Shows a Brides Best Friend Guide.
WEDDING SHOWS……..A BRIDES BEST FRIEND……….
Think of all the things you need for your special day. Where do you start?
The venue is the most important first decision, so decide on how many guests will be coming and then who can accommodate them?
Is it the fairytale, historic beautiful setting of a castle, period country house or converted barn or the chic modern hotel or restaurant that offers you space and a choice of facilities?
Wedding shows in venues are the perfect opportunity for you to look around, with no pressure to make an immediate decision.
They offer a close inspection of facilities, staff and food options coupled with the added bonus of all the other services and products you will need being displayed with an opportunity to meet the supplier and discuss your requirements .
From the show you can also gain ideas and contacts while you see bands perform, inspect the quality of decoration, stationery, bridal gowns and photographers work and many other important things that mean so much on the day.
The Main Event Co Uk Ltd have dedicated their careers to organising quality shows at some of the most loved, yet sometimes surprising venues, to host shows in the south east.
So come along – See the difference – find suppliers and new ideas……

One of the many reasons I love this business is all the different people I get to meet who offer amazing and often different services to brides. I’m going to be running a regular feature on my blog featuring interviews with other wedding vendors, and hope that you find inspiration and ideas for your big day.
To kick off these interviews I am really excited to be featuring an interview with the Biscuiteers crew, who make and deliver the most delicious biscuits.
How did Biscuiteers start?
Biscuiteers started 2 years ago. We came up with the idea when on trip to NY – we saw there was a gap in the market for a completely new iced biscuit gift company
What makes your biscuits so special?
A great deal of time and love goes into making each and every biscuit, they are completely handmade by biscuit-mad Biscuiteers so you can be sure they will always taste and look delicious.
What is important to you at Biscuiteers?
Spreading a little biscuit love and making really beautiful, imaginatively designed biscuits- we enjoy sending biscuits to people nearly as much as you all love eating them!
How can I use Biscuiteers at my wedding?
We have a beautiful range of wedding favours that can be used for all sorts of things – invites, place settings or just as a thank you for coming! All our wedding favours can be adapted to suit your theme or colour scheme and can be found at Biscuiteers. Please contact Izzy on 08704 588 358 or at Izzy@biscuiteers.com and she will be more than happy to help you with your big day.
Can you make special orders?
We offer a bespoke service that is a perfect way to add that special something to your wedding. Our biscuit icers are experts and can recreate almost anything in biscuit form! So if your fiancé is car crazy or you would like to add a bit of personality to proceedings, please get in touch and we can design some original biscuits for you. Possibilities are endless!
How long before my wedding would I have to order my Biscuiteers favours?
You are more than welcome to place your order whenever it suits you and many brides contact us up to a year in advance, but we would certainly advise that you get in touch with us at least a month before your wedding
How long do the biscuits stay fresh?
Our biscuits will stay fresh for 4 months, but we challenge anybody to keep them for that long!
How do you present my biscuits?
We offer a variety of packaging options for wedding favours. If you are giving the biscuits to your guests as gifts we can present them in our beautiful biscuit card boxes or wrapped in cello and tied with a ribbon. Our keep-sake tins are also available as a lovely way to offer the biscuits with after dinner coffee.
How much do Biscuiteers wedding favours cost?
Our favours start at £2.75 each and we have a minimum order of 50. Bespoke prices are based on design complexity and quantity, please get in touch with Izzy for a personalised quote.
Can we buy Biscuiteers biscuits anywhere else?
Our biscuit cards and tin collections are available to buy online at Biscuiteers. We are also stocked in Harrods, Selfridges, Liberty, Fenwick and John Lewis. You can also find us in Galerie Lafayette and Colette in Paris.
What ingredients do you use to make your biscuits?
In our yummy biscuits you can find –
Biscuit: flour, butter, sugar, golden syrup, pasteurised egg, the best cocoa powder, vanilla pods or all spice.
Icing:icing sugar, water, meriwhite meringue powder, food colours*.
Crunchy sugar:confectioner’s glaze, carnuba wax, food colours*.
Allergy advice: contains wheat gluten, eggs and milk.
Our biscuits are made in kitchens that also prepare lots of delicious things that include nuts and sesame seeds. We use natural and naturally derived colours wherever possible (carmine, carotene, beetroot extract, red cabbage blue, paprika, carbon and caramelised sugar) but your biscuit collection may contain up to 4 of the following: E129, E124, E122, E104, E110, E133, E155, E153, E102. As all our biscuits are handmade, there may be some small variations in colour and design in each tin. We think this adds to their charm – we hope you agree!
Here are some teasing glimpses of how delightful their biscuits look and be sure to check out the Biscuiteers website to see more of their delicious biscuits!
If you know of someone who offers weddings services and they would like to be interviewed for the blog, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
